Interesting Facts

Volcanic terrain is the result of the accumulation of erupted lava, unlike mountains that are the result of erosion of earth’s crust, uplifting, folding, and faulting. A vent that connects the molten areas or molten rock(magma) are formed through a series of cracks beneath and within the volcano. Approximately there are 1,350 potentially active volcanos world wide. link
